Viewing Windows Vulnerabilities for Oval bulletins

The Vulnerabilities to Windows site detects and reports vulnerabilities of Microsoft products and third-party Windows applications. The site is limited to detection of the vulnerabilities and does not patch Fixlets to deployments.

Vulnerabilities to Windows Systems: Enable "Accepted" Evaluation
Vulnerabilities to Windows Systems: Enable "INITIAL SUBMISSION" Evaluation

You can get information from the following sections in the dashboard.

You can also view the vulnerabilities that have a severity rating of 'high'.
